Sea World

Last week Tutu (Grandma) took the kids and I to Sea World. We haven't been in a few years. It was really Matt's first time going, last time he was there he was an infant. We had a great time, with the purchase of a ticket you get the rest of the year free. I will go back plenty!

Shark!

Dolphin show, my favorite.

That's what you feed the Bat Ray's.

James said their mouths feel sucky!

Dog Blog

Hi! My name is Jack-Jack. I am the cutest dog in the house right now. I feel right at home with my new family, see how happy Tyler is to be with me?

Hopefully that other dog Cody will stop trying to eat me when I look at his toys. Doesn't he know that I am so cute and can do whatever I want?

Three Little Piggies

Had three kids, needed three weenie dogs, right?

This pup has been running non stop since he got here, he finally tuckered himself out!

Messin' things up.

Another Brother

Brother Chris and his lovely wife Kim came and stayed at our house for a week. They are thinking of relocating to our area! I hope they do. In the meantime, please enjoy these wonderful photo's of my brother getting his hair did. By me. Now he is a blond.

Chris. Matt. Beer through a straw?

Mom! This is YOUR kid!

Look at cute little Heidi, Chris and Kim's only child....for now.

Help!

Here we go again....

Can you feel it? The winds of change.... here they come. Is it good? I don't know. I never know. What do I know?

As you do not know the path of the wind, or how the body is formed in a mother's womb, so you cannot understand the work of God, maker of all things. Eccelesiastes 11:5

I don't know what God is doing, but I am happy he is working on us. He wouldn't bother if He didn't love us so much.

James probably said it best:

Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything. James 1:2-4

Please say a little prayer for my family this week, if you think about it.

Matthew's Un-Birthday

Matthew turns six on August 5th. He didn't want a party. I talked him into a cake and presents. That was good enough for him. I've said it before, I am sure I will be saying it for the rest of my life, Matt is a weird boy. What six year old doesn't want a party?

Here's Matthew on his new bike.
